====== MAINTENANCE OF RECORDS RELATING TO NOTARIES. ======

The Commission observed that digital filing of records by notaries can be one possible solution for retrieving the
record. The new records should be created by the notaries through a Law Ministry􀇯s online portal. As regards the
old records, it may be scanned and uploaded on the web-portal so that it can be easily accessed and retained for
long periods.

=====  =====

The Commission advised the Secretary, Deptt. of Legal Affairs to expedite action on the orders of the
Hon'ble High Court for bringing about the change in record keeping and to move towards digitization of their
records pertaining to the notaries. This will facilitate replies to RTI applications and would also be in consonance
with the section 4(1)(a)of the RTI Act 2005((CIC/SS/A/2013/001032, dated 12.05.2017)).
